Stir-Fried Garlic Chives With Chile image

From the epicurious.com website (and originally published in the August 2005 issue of Gourmet). This is a simple recipe that makes a nice side dish, or stir in your favorite shrimp for a full meal. (I like to use leftovers of my Chili's Spicy Garlic & Lime Shrimp Recipe #76470.) Cook time does not include time to cook rice.
